Overview

About 1 Lancotbury Close

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

1 Lancotbury Close is a four-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Totternhoe, Dunstable, Dunstable (LU6 1RQ). It has a recorded floor area of 109 m² (around 1173 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since May 2013. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and window efficiency went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

At 109 m² it's 20.4% larger than the typical home in the postcode (91 m² median across 28 EPCs). Across 2013–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.1% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£379/sq ft) was about 79.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Most recent transfer: October 2022 at £445,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
